What would a rectangle look like with an area of 36?

It would be a rectangle.

How do you find the width of a rectangle when the height is 7 ft and the length is 23 ft?

A rectangle only has 2 dimensions. The longer one is usually called the length, and the shorter one is usually called the width. But if the rectangle happens to be standing up on one of its sides, then either the length or width may become its height. Whenever you see "height" of a rectangle, that number will be either the length or the width of the rectangle when the drawing is lying flat on the desk.
